Malware is evolving daily and with each new sophisticated malware threat hackers are one step closer to causing destruction on PCs around the world. SpyHunter is a real-time anti-spyware program designed to assist computer users of virtually any experience level with the detection and removal of spyware, adware, browser hijackers, bad toolbars, rootkits, trojans, ransomware, worms and even stubborn threats on their PC. SpyHunter combines powerful and easy-to-use features automatically configured to give PC users the optimal malware protection.

SpyHunter was specially crafted to respond with advanced technology to stay one step ahead of new and emerging malware threats created on a daily basis. SpyHunter is certified by the West Coast Labs Checkmark Certification program, an independent security and product testing service.

The advanced customization abilities of SpyHunter ensure computer users are able to customize SpyHunter to their specific needs. SpyHunter is able to detect and remove stubborn malware threats, such as rootkits. These particular types of threats utilize stealth methods to install rogue anti-spyware programs and other dangerous Trojans.

Aggressive malware such as rootkits may utilize hidden and encrypted files and folders to evade detection by common security software. In such a case, SpyHunter can perform an instant rootkit scan and immediately display a message when detected. This newly integrated advanced rootkit detection technology will greatly reduce the likelihood of rootkits loading when Windows is restarted. If a rootkit is detected, SpyHunter will ask the user to reboot the computer and remove the rootkit during the restart process.

Removal of rootkits from your computer completely, Windows must be stopped during the boot process due to rootkits using other files that load and run with Windows. Preventing rootkits with SpyHunter has been taken to step further by preventing rootkits from regenerating through use of a Compact OS built into SpyHunter. SpyHunter's Compact OS will allow your computer to be booted without Windows so the rootkit infection may be removed completely from your computer.
